Reading: Luke 7:36~50
| 7:36 |
And
one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him.
And he went into the Pharisee's house, and sat down to meat. |
| 7:37 |
And,
behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew
that Jesus sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, brought an
alabaster box of ointment, |
| 7:38 |
And
stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his
feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head,
and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment. |
| 7:39 |
Now
when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake within
himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have
known who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him:
for she is a sinner. |
| 7:40 |
And
Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have somewhat to say
unto thee. And he saith, Master, say on. |
| 7:41 |
There
was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one owed
five hundred pence, and the other fifty. |
| 7:42 |
And
when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both.
Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most? |
| 7:43 |
Simon
answered and said, I suppose that he, to whom he forgave most.
And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged. |
| 7:44 |
And
he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this
woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for
my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped
them with the hairs of her head. |
| 7:45 |
Thou
gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in
hath not ceased to kiss my feet. |
| 7:46 |
My
head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath
anointed my feet with ointment. |
| 7:47 |
Wherefore
I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for
she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same
loveth little. |
| 7:48 |
And
he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven. |
| 7:49 |
And
they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves,
Who is this that forgiveth sins also? |
| 7:50 |
And
he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace. |
